WATER PILLS. Who's tried em?

Originally posted by Dave

only a couple of people have posted about using water pills, and all of them have had success with them, especially for rubra faceii. Can you guys give a little more detail about the brand and dosages and stuff? Also if anyone else has tried them, please lemme know. Cuz they're real cheap, and i'm real broke. Thanks

Dave, I've been looking back through all previous posts and I can't find any reference to water pills having improved redness from KPRF. I can't understand how being dehydrated would help reduce flushing. In fact I find just the opposite, the more water I drink, the less I flush - especially if I've been drinking any alcohol. If you, or anyone else has reduced their KPRF with these pills, please tell us more cos it sounds a little strange to me. Thanks, Rick.

Don't take water pill, diuretics. They can be real dangerous, deplete your potssium and make you feel like S---!

You think your doing a good thing for your kp and you could land yourself in the hospital with an IV to bring up your electrolytes. Proceed with caution!!

I know, I take them for hypertension. When one takes water pills, you should also take a potassium supplement, K-Dur..

If you decide to try it, please be under a doctor's care. Don't just go the vitamin store..
